"Two weeks ago I was on the loneliest part of the road when I looked behind me and saw a man on a bicycle. He had a short, dark beard. I looked back before I reached Farnham, but the man was gone, and I thought no more about it. But you can imagine how surprised I was, Mr Holmes, when on my return on the Monday I saw the same man on the same stretch of road."

How much influence does the process of birth have on our emotional stabilitv in later life? Dr Prudence Tunnadine examines the ideas of Frederick Leboyer , Dr R. D. Laing , Dr Frank Lake and other psychiatrists, therapists and obstetricians who believe that birth is a violent. painful and psychologically damaging experience for many babies, and a major contribution to adult unhappiness. They also discuss one of the remedies - therapy in which adults may be encouraged to relive their own birth to help them understand and erase the original suffering.
